    Default Louisvillekid's Big East Tournament Challenge

    The Big East Tournament is about a week away and I'm already excited. I was unable to attend it this year so I thought I have some fun with with SBR's top cappers.

    The Dates . . . March 12 - 15

    The Challenge. . . is to beat me ATS. The players will pick ATS in both the line and the total for every big east tournament game. There will be 11 games creating 22 wagers placed in total.

    Who can enter . . . Any SBR fourm poster who joined SBR before 3/1/08. Non US players must pay the cost to send out the prize (it will come out of the winnings), I'll look for the cheapest way.

    How to win. . .

    1. Must have alteast 15 wins out of the 22 games to win the prize.

    2. Must beat me, in other words If I win the contest nobody wins the prize.

    3. Must pick EVERY GAME or you will not be eligible for the prize.

    4. Picks Must be in for all games that day before tip of the first game.

    Prizes . . .

    Grand Prize = $100 if you win 20 or more plays out of the 22.
    1st Prize = $50 to 1st place in the standings (Most wins)

    So If noone hits 20/22 then the prize drops to $50 and goes to 1st place as long as they have alteast 15 wins.

    If noone reaches 15 wins, well then its just for bragging rights.

    If someone wins, I'll have the money sent out before the conclusion on the NCAA Tournament.

    Tie Breakers. . .

    Predict the winning teams total points in the Conference Championship game. (will come later in the contest if needed)

    I will post the Offical Lines well before the gametime. . .

    Entries will be final Tues March 11, 12:59pm

    Its' not a big prize, but it should be fun. . .

    We should be in for a great Championship Week, especially in the Big East.

    GL to all. . .

    Suggestions?

    If you want to enter please post 'Im in' to enter

    I was considering throwing in a little twist . . .

    One play each day will be your BEST BET and that will count as double. If you win your BEST BET then you get 2 wins, but if you loss your BEST BET you recieve 2 losses. . .

    Ill let you guys decide. . .

    St Andrew,

    You can still play but just won't be eligible for the prize. . .

    Sorry dude,

    Its nothing against you I just don't want posters coming over from other forums and signing up. I Like the SBR posters and what to give back to the site, as well as a personal challenge for myself. That is the only thing I could think of to limit this to the SBR guys, as well as the posters who have been contriubuting for a while.

    LK1,

    Great idea. I am like St Andrew, not enough posts to win $$$. I think the board gets carried away with # of posts someone has. # does not necessarily mean quality contributions to the board. Heck, there are guys out there racking up 1,000 posts + per month just saying stuff like "with ya on that one" or "GL".

    Just my 2 cents but I see your logic regarding cappers coming over from other forums.

    ACC is my specialty; GL with the contest.

    Would like to join this as well, maybe instead of post count you could use SBR join date....just a thought, thanks for the contest bro

    I'll play, though I know I can't reap any financial reward if, by some miracle, I manage to win.

    I want everyone @ SBR to get involved and that is a good idea about the join date. . .

    Im now opening the prize to all SBR players who have joined before 3/1/08.

    Post count doesn't compare the level of posting but I was just trying to keep it for the SBR guys.

    Sorry about the confusion.
